I like Cortana for finding things on my computer.
But I never want Cortana to run a Bing web search.

I don't want to use Cortana for finding things on the net.

For that, I can use my own browser set to my choice of search engine.

How do I turn off Cortana's connection to Bing on the net?
At the same time keeping Cortana's searches on my computer?


If you use Chrome browser, you can use Edgedeflector to force Cortana to
use chrome and then the Chrometana extension to force it to use your
default search engine. Then you don't need to disable Cortana completely
and should be able to use it locally. They're free progams.
